University of Texas officials formally announced the hiring of Tom Herman as the team’s 30th head coach in school history in an afternoon email.

“The opportunity to come back to Texas is a dream come true for me and my family, and I can’t thank President (Gregory L.) Fenves and (athletic director) Mike Perrin enough for providing me with this incredible opportunity,” Herman said in a statement. “Longhorn football has been – and always will be – a national power, winning and playing for national championships with great pride and passion, supported by an unbelievable fan base.”
